Superior Drummer 3 for Electronic Music? Yes! Adam Pollard aka Multiplier, takes you on an epic journey into using Toontrack Superior Drummer 3 for Electronic Music production in these creative and informative video tutorials.

Adam welcomes you and gives an overview of what this series is all about and what to expect. He then jumps right in and covers topics such as electronic drum structure, what to listen for when choosing electronic drums, and creating a standard electronic drum pattern.

Next you'll look at how to import drums and save kits, create a build up using grooves and velocity, how you can use Tracker to learn unfamiliar genre rhythms, layering percussion over a bassline, use drum bleed as texture, tune kicks, offset claps and snares, humanize electronic drums with hit variation and more.

You'll then get creative videos covering topics like using reverb predelay to turn a snare into an additional high hat, create velocity sensitive drum stacks from recordings you make at home yourself, and then combine them with MIDI groove sampling, and using pitch envelopes in "Pitch FX" to experiment with unusual sound design.

But wait, that's not all! Multiplier also shows you things like how to make layered clap stacks, add punch to a kick using a pitch envelope, create width with delay, create unusual rhythms by importing random samples into Tracker, rhythmically modulate drum bleed to add subtle rhythms to get the listener dancing along, and much, much more.

See the individual tutorial descriptions for more info.

Very insightful

Very organized presentation. Presenter did an excellent job staying focused on key points and the associated connections.

Very Thought-Provoking and Informative

I am not primarily interested in EDM, but learned a lot from this about how to use the software, and more importantly, how to think about synthesising and mixing percussion sounds. I really enjoyed the demonstrations of "What" he was doing, the really important step of understanding "Why", and then the very clear "How" to actually do it with an emphasis on subtle but significant touches that add up to brilliant instead of bog-standard. Inspiring!

Excellent Set of Tips

A solid group of concise videos from EDM patterns for notices like myself, to more subtle tweaks to punch up your mixes.
Well worth the watch, and I will certainly return to refresh my memory when mixing.

I've had a lot of experience in the EDM space, from producing tracks and sample packs that have charted on sites like Beatport, through to DJing internationally and running a record label. And on the training side I've produced thousands of tutorials, and also tutor people one to one.
